Collaborative approval & evidence management: How to Digitalize PPAP
Benjamin Rasoulkhani explains the “Digital PPAP” Use Case
During the Automotive Masterminds Conference, held in Berlin from March 5th to 6th, 2024, material.one AG and adesso SE showcased advanced digital solution concepts to tackle current and future challenges in the automotive industry. Benjamin Rasoulkhani, Director of Product Development at material.one, delivered a presentation on the "Digital PPAP" use case.
The conference has established itself as a platform for decision-makers and experts from the automotive sector to exchange technical solutions, experiences, and strategies, as well as gain insights into new trends and solution ideas. Rasoulkhani's presentation on the digitized Production Part Approval Process (PPAP), a critical process in the product development cycle for ensuring the quality and conformity of materials and components, garnered significant attention. This process is already successfully implemented with customers in the automotive sector.
The cloud-based platform material.one is revolutionizing PPAP processes through digitization and integration across company boundaries into the supplier network, reducing error potentials, shortening lead times, minimizing costs, and ensuring timely series production launches. Furthermore, material.one facilitates manufacturers' compliance with environmental standards across their supply chain by simplifying, accelerating, and making transparent the approval process and documentation regarding recyclables, CO2 emissions, and other environmental factors.
Bernd Löhle, CEO of material.one, emphasized the strategic importance of the collaboration with adesso during the conference: "As a subsidiary of adesso SE and an integral part of their solution portfolio, material.one benefits significantly from adesso's broad expertise in the automotive industry, their IT knowledge, and agile project methodology. This partnership enables continuous expansion of the functionality of our platform material.one."
